Making ourselves at home

Lucas's fever was gone after one single dose of Tylenol and he shows no sign of infection anywhere.  But the doctors said we made the right decision to take him to the ER since with his port, infection can progress quickly and be fatal.   His hemoglobin went down to 74 and platelets down to 17 this morning so the blood transfusion has started.  We will be able to go home after he is fever free for 24 hours and the blood culture remains negative for 48 hours and when his ANC is trending up.

This morning I enjoyed making the bed, organizing the drawers and cabinets, and repositioning the chairs to fit our needs.  Hopefully our stay is short and uncomplicated.

Happy New Year to every one!
